And Cyril tnrned and beheld the
graceful figure just entering the room
"a figure tall aud slight, dressed in
trailing rich silk, whose sombre hue
only served to enhance the brilliancy Of
her complexion.

ingly sweet. still soft and girlish, but
nevertheless possessing more than one
line upon the broad, white forehead
and about the snail, sensitive mouth,
for whose presence time was hardly
answerable. The bright masses of
brown hair were coIled behind the

magnificent pearls cleaned among
them. Ahl had Cyril ever seen that

Clari Hunter did not look much the

Perhaps her unexpected attack had,

was crossed In two hasty strides.
Cyril Beresford's strong arms were

Old English Weddings

An English wedding in the time of
good Queen Bess was a Joyous public
festival. Among the higher ranks the
bridegroom presented the company
with scarfs. gloves, and garters of the
fayorite colors of the wedding pair;
and the ceremony wound up with
banquetings, masques, pageants. and
epithalamiums. a gay procession
formed a part Of the humber mar
riages. The bride was led 10 church
between two boys, wearing bride laces
and rosemary tied about their silken
sleeves, and before her was carried a
silver cup filed with wine, in which
was q large branch OF gilded rosemary,
hung about with silken ribbons OF all
coIors- Next came the musicians, and
then the bridesmaids, some bearing
great bride cakes, others garlands of
0iIded wheat. Thus they marched
TO church amidst the shouts an6 bene-
dtctions Of the spectators

as he said these words his pistol rang
out amid the din and confusion, and
Eubanks' bridal tour had ended.
"Now," he said, turning to the con-
ductor, ''yOu may stop the tram. I've
had my revenge"
Grabbing hold of the lever the con-
ductor shut OFF the steam, and the train,

Earl, who was standing there with a
contemplate smile on his face, she
demanded:
Are you the author of this?''
Earl did not speak. Her cold,
reproachful glance cowed him.
"When Earl said he had his revenge
he told the truth. There upon the floor

Our Hotel Haunting Aaistocracy

Ever season the noble army o!
would-be arIstOcrots is sWelled. We
now have a distinct, untitled. sham
aristOcracy which is infinitely enter
tanning. Go to any of the summer
hotels throughout the land, and you
will find large percentage of We'll
bred, well dressed, handsome Jews,
VINO interfere with no one, and never
mingle outside their own race; larger
percentage of wealthy gentIieS, who
wear Gorgeous dresses. have gorgeous
turn outs, gorgeous manners, aud a
Gorgeous disregard for GRAMMAR; a
few quiet, well bred, reserved FAM
lies, who lead retired lives and bother
no one; and small colony OF solids
tant great ones, toward whom the ewes
of every one are constantly turning.
These people, on their arrival, send
forth the fiat that ''they don't care To
mix outside their own cIrcle,'' and
rude remarks of theirs, to the effect
that ''theTe is no one in the house
with whom they care to associate"
are constantly in circulation among
lha nnaEtE, and lss1Ea some sore, some
angry, some jealous, aud few philos-
ophers amused. 1t Is the secret desire
of half the people in the hotel to be ad-
mItted into this exclusive paradise;
they would do anything to be able To
sit in the heart OF that little clique, as
II forms an aristOcratic hollow square
on the shady side of the piazza. But
rarely are their pains rewarded. The
hollow square shows chilling diSre-
gard of their existence. winch IS more
crushing than deliberate insult. At
the same time, however. the young fe-
male hollow sQuaTer shows no disregard
for the existence of such young male
pariahs as may be dangling about. She
absorbs them with well-bred tran
guilty, and hangs their scdlp5 round
her belt, smiling dreamIly.
But these hotel haunting arIstOcrats
are not genuine They are only good
counterfeits. Were they real they
would have had cottages long ago. But
they are smart, and they think that it's
much better to rule in hell than serve
/ in heayen-a thousand times better to
rule In a hotel than be ignored in a cot
I tage. They are, moreover, clever man
ayers, and have given the subject study.
/ They dress well and talk well. Their
manners are good save in the case OF
/ the lofty hauteur to which they treat
/ their so called social III eriors, and
/ their social interiors are more impressed
/ by this than they would be by the re
/ fined suavity of natures grandes
/ danes. Taking them ali in all, they
/ are remarkably good shams, and as
l such deserve much praise. The pos
/ sessor of brains is rarity not to bt
4 sneered at, even though lie use hl:
/ brains to make himself a fool,

Genius and Common Sense.

IL II perhaps, as natural for some
pecpie to forget common claims and
duties as it is for Others to become
absorbed in them. One man dwells
i'll thought and shrinks from action,
another is ALWAYS acting without
thinking, but, as Ruskin Well tells us,
lit is only by labor that that thought
can be MADE healthy. and only by
thought that labor can be made happy,
and the two cannot be separated with
impunity." One is welded to theo-
res and desplseS practice; another.
with executive power, scorns all theory
as vaporous and impractical. One
man, engrossed with scientific research,
neglectS TO control his money matters,
and involves himself and others IN
trouble; another, vigilant and econom-
ical, cares not a straw for the most
wonderful message that science ever
brought. Some are too much alb
Sorbed in lofty ideas or adventurous
schemes to take proper care of their
physical welfare; others, too much en-
gagged with the claims of the body to
take thought for anything beyond.
1t is :. very common mistake to sup
pose that genius must always dwell in
extremes. and that TO medIocrity alone
belongs the power of balance and hdr-
mony. While it cannot be denied that
IL is sometimes the case, 1t is not by
any means either a necessary condition
| of things or one TO be desired. The
man of genus most to be hOnOred and
admired is he who, while devoting him.
| self to some one high aim or endeavor,
never forgets other claims and other
relations. He is not satisfied to be a
grand statesman and d neglectful
father, an eminent philosopher and a
careless spendthrlft, a fine astronomer
and disloyal friend, an earnest re.
former and a cruel enemy. Whatever
else he may be he desires to be man
in the best sense of the word, and tC
that dignity he can only attain by cul.
tivatlng the qualities which combine tC
form true manhood.
